How to open a US bank account for your non-US business

Open a US bank account for your non-US business with ease. Learn how Limited’s solution simplifies global payments, reduces fees, and gives you full control of your funds through ACH, Fedwire, and SWIFT access—without needing a US office.

Why your business needs a US bank account.

Expanding your business internationally is an exciting opportunity, but it often comes with financial hurdles. For non-US businesses, accessing USD—the world’s most stable and widely accepted currency—can be a major advantage. Yet, opening a US bank account from abroad is notoriously difficult due to strict requirements, long processing times, and high fees.

Without a US bank account offering ACH, Fedwire, and SWIFT, your business could face costly currency conversions, payment delays, and limited opportunities for seamless international expansion. But with the right solution, you can avoid these challenges and gain the flexibility your business needs to grow.

The challenges of opening a US bank account as a non-US business

Traditional US bank accounts often feel out of reach, especially for businesses that do not have a physical presence in the US. Here are some of the biggest hurdles:

  • Strict requirements for eligibility: Many US banks require you to have a physical office, local representatives, or a registered legal entity in the United States before they even consider your application.
  • High fees for non-residents: Even if you meet the eligibility criteria, many banks impose high maintenance and transaction fees on non-US businesses, eating into your profits.

These obstacles do more than delay your operations—they can make it harder to budget, plan for future growth, or even pay your suppliers on time.

Why having a US bank account is essential

For businesses operating globally, having a reliable financial solution in place can be a game changer. Here is why accessing USD through a US-based financial option is crucial:

  • Effortless international payments: Avoid the headaches of currency conversions when paying US suppliers or receiving payments from clients abroad.
  • Stable USD reserves: Holding funds in USD (through USDC or USDT) protects your profits from the unpredictable nature of local currencies, giving you peace of mind.

Whether you are a startup expanding operations or an established business managing cross-border transactions, the stability and convenience of USD can fuel your growth.
